"The main sound comes form the Késako ex0ex, going to the Késako Reverb.
Voice samples: Késako Player being triggered, going through Variable Slope Filter.
Pinged VCFQ going into Frequency Shifter, sent to WAD in feedback mode.
Sequenced by Scrotum Lab Sequential Switch and Gate Sequencer.

I made a few videos of today's session, the camera was well positioned, but it must have moved before this last one! So I decided to add some footage on it."

06 26 21 Késako Player + Temps Utile + x0x

video upload by batchas

"The camera from the smartphone is not in the best position, but at least we hear the short jam I did after replacing the switches on the x0x module I made for my Buchla system and the Temps Utile I did a few years back. The Wogglebug in the bottom section of Temps Utile was not working.

Késako Player sends a beat in loop mode to the 230 and the delay section of Temps Utile. Késako x0X is synched to the beat thanx to the 230."

"I loaded a few new samples in the Player and then enjoyed very much the surprise by Triggering randomly new samples (all tabla beats).
Player signal goes through VCFQ and to freq shifter and it sounds awesome.
No external effect or EQ etc added. Direct out to stereo track."

No external effect applied."

via Batchas

PLAYER is based on Tom Whitwell’s Radio Music open source project.
REVERB is based on Tom Whitwell’s Spring Reverb MK2 open source project.

The module runs on -15V/0V/+15V and is tested in a Buchla 200e original cabinet.
It comes ready to play with a few samples on a 16GB Sandisk Ultra microSDHC and a Belton BTDR-2H Digital Reverb Brick installed.

Included is:
– SD card adapter.
– Power cable.

Not included:
– Mounting screws.

REVERB was tested with and calibrated for a Belton BTDR-2H Digital Reverb and an Accutronics 9EB2C1B Spring Reverb Tank. The brick is installed on the module. The spring reverb tank is optional and can be either connected plugged to the front or to the back of the module.

IMPORTANT:
Please notice that the START POINT function is a bonus that still does not work 100% like it should. I’ll give my best to solve it in a future firmware update.

Supported sample formats:
• .RAW = 16 Bit / 44.1 kHz – Headerless Wav files
• .WAV = 16 Bit / 44.1 kHz

Specifications:
• Size: 7 x 4.25 inches
